Gucci what??

Thursday, July 30, 2009

That's right!!! Yours truly scored a vintage Gucci bag. I actually got it at a garage sale for $3! My first real high-end designer item. Most likely my last. Okay, so I didn't really wear this outfit today. I actually wore my Ann Taylor dress, white belt, and black flats. Not very interesting but I changed into this because the husband liked this outfit, which is weird because he doesn't care a bit about fashion. So I played dress up while we ran some errands.

omg, i am totally jealous of your brilliant garage sale score! i love love love it. You don't even know... I am adding that purse to the list of items I want but totally can't afford. PS. kudos to the hubby, he's got a good eye, of course, true kudos to you for (1)marrying him and (2) picking the pieces. Lmao. brilliant

Let me know when you get your hands on a muffin tin of some sort. If we were neighbors...I would def. lend it to ya! The cupcakes were good..but I think I need a better frosting recipe that... conceals the buttery taste...perhaps more sugar is the answer. heh.

i hafta say that this hot weather is making being 'fashionable' quite a drag. although i agree w/ you that skirts and dresses are the way to go. i'm also trying to not add to my wardrobe either. you're being quite the inspiration, i say. hehe...

I love this casual outfit! It looks so so comfy and it goes to a whole new level with the addition of the Gucci bag! Can't believe you got it at a garage sale for only $3. Garage sales have true treasures sometimes.

Hi Elaine! I am the girl you stopped on my way home by the temple today wearing the black shirt w/skirt and sunglasses. Love your blog! How neat! I have a blog, too, where I sometimes talk about fashion and especially my favorite Etsy finds:

I would love to mention your blog on my site as you are a fellow Utahn with a passion for fashion. I especially like your post with all of the girls on bikes - very Bill Cunningham-esque (New York Times fashion photographer). Keep up the good work! Very inspiring!

You give me hope that one day I will score a three dollar Gucci (or Chanel...just putting it out there) handbag! NICE. Was just reading over your closet inventory...and oh, it was thrilling. I'm serious. I love this kind of stuff. Makes me salivate. Also, I am going to have to do this: go throughout my entire closet and write it all out. I'm afraid it might take awhile. But now I am really curious.
